Lebanese Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri confirmed his intention to form a government of non-partisan specialists.
Hariri said, after his meeting with President Michel Aoun, that “the President of the Republic informed me about the result of the parliamentary consultations that led to my mandate, and I thank Simony for forming a government of nonpartisan specialists.” He added: “The government will implement the articles of the French initiative and I tell the Lebanese that I am determined to fulfill my promise to stop the collapse.”
The General Directorate of the Presidency of the Republic announced, in a statement read by Director General Antoine Choucair, that President Michel Aoun “after conducting binding parliamentary consultations and after consulting with the President of Parliament Nabih Berri and informing him of its results officers, summoned Saad Hariri to appoint him to form the new government. ” Hariri obtained 65 votes from 120 deputies. Prime Minister Aoun summoned Hariri after the end of the binding parliamentary consultations and informed him of his mandate to form the new government.
The President of the Republic consulted with the Speaker of Parliament, Nabih Berri, after the end of the binding parliamentary consultations on their results, then summoned Hariri, who was the only candidate in these consultations, and informed him of the assignment.
Berri declared that “the optimistic atmosphere is between the President of the Republic, General Michel Aoun and Saad Hariri”, who is in charge of forming the new government.
The Lebanese parliament consists of 128 MPs, but eight MPs resigned after the bomb attack in the port of Beirut on 4 August.
Acting Prime Minister Hassan Diab resigned from his government on August 10, 2008, in the context of the Beirut port explosion.
It should be noted that Lebanon suffers from a financial and economic crisis, a devaluation of the national currency against the dollar, the retention of deposits by banks, a high rate of poverty and unemployment and the lack of confidence of the Lebanese in the class politics, which they expressed through popular protests.
